Mechanical Anisotropy and Failure Characteristics of Columnar Jointed Rock Masses (CJRM) in Baihetan Hydropower Station: Structural Considerations Based on Digital Image Processing Technology
The columnar joints in Baihetan hydropower station are primary tensile joints since they were formed during the process of lava condensation. Understanding the influence of columnar jointed rock mass (CJRM) on the mechanical response and failure modes is the basis for designing of associated enginee...
